UT San Diego: Tech pulls off one of biggest upsets in Holiday Bowl history (Raider Buzz blog)

Led by freshman quarterback Davis Webb, Texas Tech scored one of the biggest upsets in National University Holiday Bowl history on Monday night when the Red Raiders stunned 16th-ranked Arizona State 37-23 before 52,930 at Qualcomm Stadium.

Texas Tech, losers of five straight games at the end of the Big 12 season, entered the game as 14½-point underdogs to the Pac-12 runners-up.

“I’ve never been more proud of a group in my life,” said Texas Tech head coach Kliff Kingsbury.

I thought it was a pretty good article. It wasn't too over the top in my opinion at all...it actually seemed to be rather average...this game was colossal in terms of what it will provide momentum wise going into next season. We watched an 18 year old kid go toe to toe with 22 year old grown men and mature before our very eyes! We also saw more 18 and 19 year olds run past and through the competition. These bowl game practices are HUGE for development of these young adults we've got on roster. It's also going to give the Big XII a good image nationally and help with recruiting going into next year!
